Hello, I'm new to this forum and have a few questions about a Husqvarna 51 chainsaw that I got from a consignment store. They said it had compression and spark but could not get it going. I bought it for $20 and took it home. I tried to start it and could not get even a little cough from it. Took off muffler and saw a little scoring but not bad. Took off carburetor and cleaned it up. Took spark plug out and checked for spark. Has some spark but can't tell if it might be weak. What year was this saw made? Can anyone tell my by the serial number - 2170579?
I have good running 55 Rancher. Thinking of taking the ignition module off and trying it on the 51 to see if it will fire up. What do you all think?http://www.arboristsite.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
